Gifts from the Sea

"If you surrender completely to the moments as they pass,
you live more richly those moments" - Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Gifts of sand castles, a splinter and some screaming...

of flying, frustrations and flashlights...

of reading at dawn, a ribbon of sand, and some rain

of laughter, lighthouses and some letterboxes

of glow sticks, Ghost crabs and GARGANTUAN sand dunes

of wild horses, a wayward Six-lined Racerunner and some watermelon

of pelican tracks, pinch pots and a purdy turtle named Stumpy

of bare feet, brown bunnies and some beach crafts

of a lost toad, temporary tattoos and some tiny treasures

of family, farm stands, and a fulgurite

of surreal skies, salty tears, and sweet breezes infused with the scent of muscadine, blueberry, persimmon and pine

of marine life, melt downs and moonlight

of silliness, nightly snuggles and oh the sunsets...
